10 Things I Think
1. I’ve forgotten to pack my laptop charger. I can’t charge my ipod. I also had to buy a pair of drawers because I didn’t pack enough of those. I don’t know how that happened, but I’m surviving.
2. My runs have sucked lately. 3 or 4 miles just flat out are rough going at the moment. I’m sure its because of this beer belly that’s grown on my tummy. I wish I could go back in time to august and yell at myself to keep up the running.
3. This beer belly has certainly shot my personal self confidence. Call me weak sauce, or having a low self esteem, but I put a lot into my mood based on how I feel and look. Right now its at a low point. Clothes don’t fit anymore, I look down more. As they say, I lost my swag.
4. That said, I know I’ll burn this sucker off. I’m confident of it. It just takes some time. Again. I wish I could have punched myself to keep running back in august. But I know what I’m capable of, and most importantly I’ll never let myself settle to the point of being comfortable with being chunky. That’s when you lose.
5. I’m in the grad degree program. I’m scared as shit of turning down my current job, which is secure and pays well, for the uncertainty of what this grad program will bring. Nevermind the fact that I won’t have a steady income.
6. All I keep telling myself is fortune favors the bold. I also think I’ll do better this go around. I know that each class is an opportunity to learn. When I was an undergrad, my goal was to pass, by any means necessary, and not necessarily to learn. This go around, I want to learn everything from the class. I think that mentality makes all the difference.
7. Plus, it’ll open ridiculous doors for me.
8. After a week here in SD, I really can’t knock broham for moving. I’ll miss him, but he’ll be living down here during his mid twenties. That’s going to be a ton of fun. Nightlife and ladies are splendid. It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity.
9. I’m really excited for this years mariners. I follow them all the time, but this year, I really believe they have a shot
10. Hunger games is a great book. Good looking out broham!

Thanks!
Good for you for getting into Grad school and actually doing it. My dad wants me to do that too. The steady income part is scary though… but like you said, it’ll open those doors…
Keep up the diet/runs. 22 more days or so!
